They are confident in this moment and it will be a different game but - if we play like we know, if we are all at 100 per cent - I think we are better than them.

Elsewhere in the Premier League, Steve Bould has revealed that Jack Wilshere and Theo Walcott could return to action for Arsenal for their fixture with Norwich next Saturday.

We have good news with both of them. Jack and Theo are outside running and have an outside chance of being involved against Norwich a week on Saturday.

There is also good news for Swansea player Neil Taylor.Michael Laudrup says the full-back is close to making a first-team return after being out of action since September. Taylor broke and dislocated his ankle in a challenge with Sunderland's Craig Gardner but despite being expected to miss the rest of the season, the 24-year-old could return before the summer.

Physically he is quite close to being back. He has trained with us for some weeks, but we all know match fitness is a different level and only by coming back will he get that.

Being the age the manager is and not having any real coaching experience, being his first job, I think it's always a risk, but somebody has got to take that risk for someone to do well. Hopefully the risk in appointing him will be good for the club.

FOOTBALL

This is where I want to be. When I first arrived at City, every time I went to sleep I would dream about us winning something. Now, it is about us being the best team in whatever competition we take part in

[ssn] Former Arsenal goalkeeper David Seaman has told Sky Sports News that he believes Wojciech Szczesny is struggling for form because of his age.

It sometimes happens with young goalkeepers. You get ups and downs rather than consistent top performances.

We gave Christian the opportunity to go and perform and he has been excellent with the way he has performed and led the line. He has been excellent for us. What is he worth now? You'd have to have quite a lot of money to try and get him. In the modern day market, it can be whatever it wants.

The new county cricket season is nearly upon us. Sky Sports duo Dominic Cork and David Fulton give their thoughts ahead of the summer (weather permitting), as well as running the rule over all 18 first-class counties.

CRICKET

[dominiccork] Corky's also been having his say on England's provisional 30-man squad for the ICC Champions Trophy - and he reckons the selectors have made a mistake by overlooking Matt Prior.

England have the likes of Jos Buttler and Jonny Bairstow in that squad who can perform the wicket-keeping duties but I would have liked to have seen Prior in there. Prior is a senior batsman and I think England have missed an opportunity.

Nigel has my full respect for the job that he did here. The only thing I can say is that I hope to see him on Saturday to say hi, introduce myself and shake his hand. It will be a pleasure for me to meet him.

I've been lucky enough in my career that this will be my fourth time playing in the Football League Trophy but it's as exciting as if it were my first time. These types of occasions are the ones you put in your pocket for a long, long time.

Joe Allen says he has a lot more to showLiverpool fans ahead of his return to full fitness. The 23-year-old, who joined the club from Swansea in August 2012, has suffered from a shoulder injury for much of 2013 which has now been operated on.

It's no secret that recent months haven't gone great for me. I am confident and faithful that next season I can perform a lot better. Unfortunately this season's a write-off in regards to the injury but the plan is, and I've got a bit of time, to make sure it's right over the summer break in time for pre-season.

As you must have heard by now, tonight is Judgement Night in the Premier League. Brighton is the venue as two players get set to depart the tournament after finishing the first nine rounds of the season in the 'relegation zone'. But who will it be?

Julio Cesar is a very good goalkeeper but I deny negotiations with him or with the Queens Park Rangers.

There was an exciting finish in today's IPL game. The Royal Challengers Bangaloreheld on for a two-run win over Mumbai Indians, who had Sachin Tendulkar and Ricky Ponting opening the batting for them but failed to get the 10 they required off Vinay Kumar's final over.

Wes Newton is the first man to be knocked out in the Premier League, a 7-5 defeat at the hands of Andy Hamilton sealing his early exit from the tournament. Who will be other player to bow out after week nine of the season?

I want stability more than anything. I wanted it with Neil Warnock and Mark Hughes, so it's third time lucky with Harry. I think he is the man. We understand each other well and he knows how committed the shareholders are.

I'm hoping that in five or six weeks something will have developed by then. But we've got to start now and if nothing happens by then he's going to be one unhappy bunny. He'll be looking to move on to pastures new
